They seem to have sold very early in the lifecycle of the Unikernel technology. Possible they've left billions on the table?

Were the terms of the deal disclosed?

Perhaps Unikernel Systems ran out of money and it was an "acqui-hire"?

I wonder what the planned business model of Unikernel Systems was pre-acquisition.

Even if the acquisition was a result of Unikernel Systems running out of money, I have no doubt that these folks will continue to work on unikernels, rather than, say, more tools for managing containers.

Maybe Unikernel Systems was a supernova from the early unikernel universe.

Its people will be the elements that go to make up a new generation of unikernel companies.
